What we have established in this thread is that everyone wants him gone but nobody has come up with a valid replacement, at all.

How many people would have picked Maguire out as a serious contender back in the day?

There's always going to be someone available.

Garth Brennan would be my choice.

Behind enemy lines......laughing

He's coached every ounce of skill out of that side, since Deacs and Harris have left we've gone backwards at an alarming rate. The potential our side could have is quite scary and a decent attacking coach would have a field day with it, S Tomkins, Charnley, Manfredi, Wiliams, Bateman, Farrell, Lockers etc and all that we can produce is the same grubber kick into a corner week in week out. We are a horrible side to watch and at present do not deserve to be 3rd!

Wane's passion is there for all to clearly see but it's not enough IMO, same excuses every week and his determination to have a full 13 of Wigan lads is becoming increasingly cringeworthy.

If we don't get rid then we need to find a quality attacking coach to join our ranks as ASAP.

And why would all these posters be privi to know who's available and who's not, as I presume most are not in the rugby agent sector to know who's to sign and who's not to sign.

No worries. Dont claim to be an expert on the guy but I would go for him because of the rave reviews he's received from prominent figures in the game, his success in the NRL feeder comp and the fact that he is at the stage of his career where he could be a realistic target for us.

Plus no other English coaches excite me (bar maybe Darryl Powell who I doubt would come) and that I think we need fresh ideas from the Australian game.

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS

For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.

For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.

Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row

Yet you mention six of them in your post!
And just out of curiosity how many times have those seven taken the field together this season.

Personally I think a coach only has a "shelf life" of five or six seasons unless the playing staff changes by large amounts over that time.

Obvious similarities there with Maguire, could definitely be an option. Although if the club are looking long term they may be put off as he'd no doubt bugger off back to Aus after a couple years. Powell is a good shout he's been great at Cas and they play the best rugby in SL by a mile. What makes you think he wouldn't join a club like Wigan? I think he'd jump at the chance.
